The heat continues..

Fairbanks continues to reinforce the record number of days with temperatures of 80 degrees or higher. The temperature yesterday climbed to 85 degrees at the Fairbanks Airport, which broke the previous record for August 7th of 83 degrees set back in 1968. Fairbanks has now had 35 days this summer with a temperature of 80 degrees or higher and 14 days with a temperature of 85 degrees or higher. The average number of days each summer of 80 degrees or higher is 11 and only 3 days are 85 degrees or higher. The hottest temperature observed this summer was 92 degrees on June 25th and 26th.

Woww..this is crazyy! August is usually rainy and cool! I heard another fire started on the flats (luckily not endangering anything..it seems like a lot of fires happen there). I'm tired of smelling smoke haha. The poor plants all look super stressed and a bunch of spruce trees are dying from beetle damage :(

I got a message on my home phone from a guy investigating the dredge fire and to call him back. Wow! (How did he get my number?? Haha) I should call him back but the phone is scaryyy. D: lol


They would all get tiring if I listened to them that long! Haha




Would you rather eat a package of cookies for breakfast every day for a month or drink 15 cups of coffee a day for a month? Eww

That is so crazy about the record temps! Wow. I bet smoke does get an old fragrance to be inhaling after a while - can't be the greatest for you either. Eesh. That's also pretty crazy how that guy got your phone number! You should call him back anyway haha even though, yes, the phone is scary lol D:

I keep on trying to email you songs for today and tomorrow and my emails keep on getting bounced back to me!! D: It is very frustrating. Just letting you know that I'm trying haha.
